In 1978, Disney was celebrating Mickey Mouse's 50th Birthday. As part of the birthday celebration, Disney created a special animated logo, which appeared on thetrical releases and re-issues. Later, the logo was modified to be used as the logo for Disney's new home media division.
Logo: A solid red Mickey appears with purple dashed outlines surrounding it. The Mickey starts to rotate. After a while, the text "Congratulating Mickey Mouse on his 50th Birthday!", in white and in a fancy font, zooms in. After a few seconds, it zooms in towards the screen until vanishing from sight, and the top and bottom halves of the 1978 Buena Vista logo wipe in over the logo.
Variants:
Technique: Rotoscoped cel animation.
Music/Sounds: A loud orchestral fanfare, composed by longtime Disney composer Buddy Baker.
Availability: Appears on 1978 thetrical releases (The Cat from Outer Space, Return from Witch Mountain) and theatrical re-issues (Pinocchio, The Jungle Book).
Legacy: A very important and beautifly animated logo, which would later be used (in modified form) as the first logo for Walt Disney Home Entertainment.
